About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Escaping current location to move on to other things!

ABOUT ME

I have many interests, but unfortunately, my favorite is to see people enjoy themselves. This causes confusion among many, but at least I know what I mean.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what you can and try not to worry about the rest...most things aren't as important as society would lead us to believe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a number of couches and have almost always had great experiences. I have hosted one person from CS. It was an emergency situation and against the rules, but we managed.I have hosted numerous others not from CS. I do hope to finally get a place where I am able to have overnight guests! For now, meeting for coffee or such is all I can do.

Interests

I am interested in psychology, reading, exploring, learning, experiencing, cultures, languages, etc.

  • causes
  • coffee
  • reading
  • languages
  • psychology
  • religion

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read and have many favorite authors: James Joyce, Joseph Conrad, Alexander Dumas, etc.

I tend to be a little cinematically deprived, but I am particularly interested in psychological thrillers such as Seven, The Cell, Silence of the Lambs. (And weird spoofs like Silence of the Hams...)
